If like me you always make too much Chilli Con Carne then you will no doubt end up having to freeze it or eat it the next day in a huge Yorkshire pud or on a jacket spud.

Well here is one way to use the left overs, it’s great for parties too…..i can’t find the pic so if anyone makes them before i have time to given them another go then please send me it.

Ingredients

left over chilliconcarne

1 packet of filo pastry

melted butter

guacamole (optional)

soured cream (optional)

Tabasco sauce (optional)

Cheddar cheese (grated)

Method

Take a sheet of filo out of the packet, brush with melted butter, cut into 6 pieces.

Take one of the pieces and place in a muffin tin, then take another piece and place in the opposite direction in the same muffin section, repeat until you have filled your muffin tray. the should end up looking a bit like this (sorry that’s the closest thing i could find)

Fill each cup with chilliconcarne and sprinkle with cheese

Bake in a hot oven for 15-20mins or until golden and crispy

Remove from muffin tray, add a spoon of guacamole or soured cream and some Tabasco to each and serve.

You could also make little mini pasties or fold them over into won-ton shapes like this
